Who normally would prescribe Provigil for fatigue, your primary care

doc or the rheumy? I'm on Humira now once a week for PA. I'm hoping

that the increased dose will help the fatigue. I keep hearing good

things about Provigil. I need some energy back to be effective in my

work.

[Editor's Note: Mark, in my case, my rheumy was willing to prescribe Provigil

when I complained of severe fatigue. At that time, I opted not to go ahead with

it as I felt I should pursue other ways to relax first and I didn't really want

to add another drug to the regimen. I find that taking melatonin at night to

get more sleep and exercise (in my case, swimming) have helped to give me a lot

more energy on most days. Ha, it also helped that I decided to retire on my 57th

birthday. I suggest talking to your rheumy (because he or she needs to know all

meds you are on anyway) and if he/she is comfortable with prescribing Provigil,

then that's probably the way to go because the rheumy is the one who is

reviewing your bloodwork on a regular basis. Kathy F.]
